Chapter 226 Three Hundred and Fifty Taels



Chapter 226 Three Hundred and Fifty Taels

The next day, Wen Zhenyi added another breakfast dish to the store: preserved egg and salted egg porridge, to see if everyone would accept it.

Shen Hanxing came early this morning.

Wen Zhen was stunned when he saw him: “Brother Wen, why are you here instead of taking care of Grandpa Shen?”

"He's fine, but he's still a little weak."

"He's weak, let him rest more."

"He can't sit still. He went to class early in the morning and asked me to come and help quickly, which delayed the business in your store." Shen Hanxing thought of Shen Xiucai with a helpless look on his face.

“They are all people who can’t sit still.”

"Yes, I'm going to sort out the account books. I haven't been here for such a long time, and I have a lot of things to do."

"Have you had breakfast?"

"I've eaten. Brother Lin brought it to us. I came here after I finished eating."

Wen Zhen nodded and opened the door of the shop.

The guests were already waiting at the door: "Good morning, Miss Wen!"

"Good morning."

After Wen Zhenyi and his team started delivering food, the store became less crowded, but business was still booming.

"Miss Wen, today's breakfast hasn't changed, has it?"

"Nothing has changed, except that there's extra preserved egg and salted egg porridge today."

"What's this?"

"These are salted duck eggs and preserved eggs made in our village. They have a special taste."

"Now that you mention it, we'd like to give it a try."

Wen Zhenyi remembered what the customer ordered and went to the kitchen to serve the food to the customer.

When Cheng Lesheng arrived, he had already missed the morning rush hour: “Han Xing, is Grandpa Shen okay?”

"Well, what brings you here?"

"I came to see Miss Wen for something."

"He's in the backyard, go find her."

Wen Zhenyi sat in the backyard to rest for a while, took a sip of tea, and was thinking about whether he should go back to the village to see how many salted duck eggs and preserved eggs there were to sell.

Prepare to have them delivered to the Cheng family's shop.

"Miss Wen."

Wen Zhenyi was a little confused when he saw him: "Why are you here at this time?"

"Of course I have something to discuss with you."

Wen Zhenyi poured him a cup of tea: "Sit down and talk."

Cheng Lesheng sat across from her: "My father came back yesterday, and I told him about your plan to buy a shop."

"how?"

"I can sell the shop to you, but I also want to discuss something with you."

Wen Zhenyi put down the teacup in his hand: "Is it related to the shop?"

"You could also say it doesn't matter."

"Don't keep me in suspense. Just say what you want to say."

"One is that I give you this shop and you do me a favor."

Wen Zhenyi raised his head and looked at Cheng Lesheng: "What can I do for you?"

"We have restaurants in our county and town, but business isn't very good. Now that you've become quite famous, I'd like to invite you to come to the restaurant and prepare a banquet for me once a month. I'll pay for the banquet."

"What if I don't agree?"

"Then I'll sell you this shop, too, but it's only three hundred and fifty taels."

Wen Zhenyi was slightly surprised when he heard the price: "Are you sure?"

"Well, my father bought this shop for 350 taels, but he didn't make any money from you." Cheng Lesheng was afraid that she would not believe him, so he showed her the title deed.

Wen Zhenyi saw a piece of paper next to the house deed with the amount written on it.

Cheng Lesheng waved his fan and said, "Look, I didn't lie to you."

Wen Zhenyi looked up at him and asked, "Is your restaurant business not doing well?"

"I wouldn't say it's bad, I can only say it's just average. We can do what other companies can do, but there's nothing new."

Wen Zhenyi knew what the problem was: "The county town or the town, you choose a place, and I can arrange a table for you every month."

"real?"

"Well, you have to tell me in advance. I told you before Master Cheng's birthday. Don't forget it when the time comes."

"Don't worry, I still remember and will tell you the specifications."

"In the county or in the town?"

"If possible, it's best to go to the county town. I can have someone take you there."

"Okay, but I've already said that I'll only take one table. I won't take more than that."

"No problem." Cheng Lesheng handed over the deed: "This is for you."

"Let's go to the government office and replace the title deed. I'll give you the money you deserve."

"You really don't take advantage of anything."

"It's easy to take advantage, but it's not so easy to pay it back."

Cheng Lesheng was slightly stunned: "We didn't ask you to return it."

"Whether you let me or not is one thing, but whether I return it or not is another."

"Let's go to the government office to exchange the land deed."

Wen Zhenyi said something to Zhu Tao and the others, and when he arrived at the hall, he said to Shen Hanxing, "Brother Shen, I need to go back to the village."

"Go ahead, I'll help you watch the store."

"good."

Wen Zhenyi replaced the house deed at the government office and gave 350 taels to Cheng Lesheng: "Master Cheng, thank Master Cheng for me."

"We should be the ones thanking you. Because of your shop, the prices of houses here have skyrocketed."

"Are you planning to sell?"

"My father has this idea. If it's suitable, he still hopes to sell it."

"That's good too. No matter how much real estate you have, it's not as solid as real money."

"That makes sense."

"Master Cheng, can you deliver the salted duck eggs and preserved eggs to the grocery store?"

"Yes. Have someone deliver it to them, and I'll have the shopkeeper settle the bill for them in person."

"Okay, I'll talk to them."

"You want to go back to the village?"

Wen Zhen nodded: "Well, I have something to do when I get back."

"Should I send you off?"

"No, I can just walk back."

"Okay then, I'll be leaving."

Wen Zhenyi and he let go at the yamen gate, and she walked out of the town.

She first arrived at the pig farm at the entrance of the village and saw Old Lady Wen and others observing the situation in the pigpen under the scorching sun, fearing that something might happen to the pigs.

"Dad, grandma."

Wen Chengwen covered his eyebrows with his hands and looked at the person running over: "Mom, is Yi Yi back?"

Old Lady Wen turned around and wiped the sweat from her forehead: "It's true."

Wen Zhenyi walked up to them, his forehead and body covered in sweat.

Wen Chengwen took off his hat and fanned her: "Why are you running back in this hot weather?"

Old Lady Wen wiped the sweat off her face with a handkerchief hanging on her body and said, "Even if you want to come back, you won't take an ox cart."

"It's okay, it's not far."

"It's not far, but it's so hot." Wen Chengwen pulled her to a cool place.

Old Lady Wen: "Yiyi, why are you running back in such hot weather?"

Wen Zhenyi took out the property deed from his arms and handed it to her: "Grandma, I bought the shop."

Mrs. Wen quickly took it and looked at it: "How much did you buy it for?"

"Three hundred and fifty taels."

"Only three hundred and fifty taels?" Old Mrs. Wen looked at her in disbelief.

"Well, Mr. Cheng didn't raise the price. He sold me the same amount as he bought it at the time."
